The Black Library: Novedades editoriales para Abril de 2013

Estas son las novedades que tiene preparadas la editorial inglesa The Black Library para el mes de abril. No sólo encontramos la reedición de Gilead's Blood con nueva portada (colección de historias que Timun Mas publicó en España bajó el título La venganza de Gilead), sino que habiendo transcurrido muchos años desde su publicación, Dan Abnett y Nik Vincent se encargan de publicar la continuación. Por otra parte, además de sacar a la venta un volumen recopilatorio con las últimas novelas aparecidas sobre elfos, de mano de Graham McNeill, publican, ya en el universo de Warhammer 40.000, una nueva novela protagonizada por la Guardia Imperial y otra por los Marines Espaciales, en Baneblade y Deathwatch, respectivamente. Por último, publican en formato audiolibro un nuevo capítulo en la exitosa saga "The Horus Heresy". Toda la información de las novedades a continuación:
